Chapter 134
He Zhiran still did not dodge.
Anyway, she had already worshipped Mo Jiuye here, and they were legitimate husband and wife.
Besides, they had just expressed their feelings to each other. If something happened at this time, it would be reasonable.
She drilled into Mo Jiuye's arms smoothly. Mo Jiuye was overjoyed, and his arms holding her tightened again.
He patted her back lightly.
"It's still early, let's rest for a while longer. I have to make up a perfect bridal chamber candle night for you, so I will definitely wait until then."
He Zhiran was relieved at this point.
Because of the surprise of the space, He Zhiran had hardly slept all night, and she was really a little sleepy now.
She closed her eyes and felt the embrace that made her feel extremely at ease, and soon fell asleep.
Although she had only slept for half an hour, the way she woke up this time was also different from before. She was still lying in Mo Jiuye’s arms.
Mo Jiuye's voice sounded a little hoarse, "Awake?"
"Well." He Zhiran responded, and was about to get up.
Unexpectedly, Mo Jiuye suddenly hugged her tightly and gently kissed her forehead.
He Zhiran was a little embarrassed and pushed him lightly, and was about to say something when she heard the voice of the eighth sister-in-law outside.
"Ninth Sister-in-law, your medicine is really effective. My eighth brother felt much more flexible when he got up this morning."
Hearing the sound of footsteps approaching, He Zhiran seemed to have done something wrong, and quickly got out of Mo Jiuye's arms.
She casually tidied up a bit, lifted the tent curtain.
In fact, it was just that she had the feeling that she had done something shameful and was afraid of being seen.
The eighth sister-in-law was very aware of the rules and stood about five meters away from the tent.
Seeing He Zhiran come out, the eighth sister-in-law still stood in place. Gét latest novel chapters on nov(e)lbj/n(.)c/om
"Ninth Sister-in-law, the eighth sister-in-law doesn't know how to thank you enough."
He Zhiran smiled, "Eighth Sister-in-law, we are all family, so there is no need to thank each other."
Seeing He Zhiran walking towards her, the eighth sister-in-law took a few steps forward and took her by the arm.
"Since Ninth Sister-in-law said so, Eighth Sister-in-law won't be polite to you."
As they spoke, the other sisters-in-law had also prepared breakfast and came to call for the meal.
The officer sighed.
"You don't know because it's your first time here. Salt Lake is prosperous. Inns here are full every day, so prices are very high. A room that costs 100 wen to stay overnight in other places costs at least two taels of silver here."
To this, He Zhiran didn’t feel anything. It was just like the difference between big cities and small cities in her previous life. The prices were also different.
Although there was plenty of silver in her space, there was no need to show off here.
Therefore, she readily accepted Peng Wang's arrangement.
I thought the officer would be busy explaining it, but unexpectedly, he started talking about other things.
"The last time we came, we heard people say that most of the inns and restaurants here were in the hands of a merchant named Tang.
Later, I don't know which character the Tang family offended that they shouldn't have offended. Overnight, their inns and restaurants changed hands, and the head of the Tang family also fell ill because of this and died after a few days.
After the new owner took over Tang's business, he gradually monopolized all the restaurants and inns here, and prices have been rising, resulting in the current situation where ordinary people can't afford to stay in an inn."
Regarding the officer's account, He Zhiran just listened to it as a story. After all, these were other people's affairs.
Just as everyone was having dinner and preparing to rest, there was a faint cry for help in the woods.
Mo Jiuye was the first to be vigilant.
Although Mo Chuhan's body was still a little weak, he did not slack off at all.
The two brothers faced the direction where the sound came from and had already taken a defensive posture.
Liang Hao and the others also hid in the dark, ready to take action with just one order from the two masters.
He Zhiran also walked quickly to the two’s side and listened carefully to the movement in the distance.
Soon, the cry for help grew closer and closer, accompanied by a messy sound of footsteps.
In the moonlight, you could see a few shadows flashing ahead.
The person running at the front was obviously lacking in strength, staggering.
The people behind him held a big knife in their hands and shouted loudly, "Tang Mingrui, if you want to live, hand over the Tang family's business secrets obediently, otherwise, a year from today will be your memorial day."
"Salt Gang robbers, even if I die, I won't hand over the secrets to you."
When they heard the name Tang Mingrui, He Zhiran and Mo Jiuye looked at each other tacitly.
This name was not unfamiliar to them.
In order to find out the real reason why Nan Qi assassinated Mo Jiuye some time ago, they had carefully read the history of this period.
They had a deep memory of some famous people in history.
The historical records show that after Fei Nan established the Da Xing Dynasty, the merchant named Tang Mingrui gave him the greatest financial support in building the country.
